Byzantine, Maltese or minimalist crosses. A symbol that becomes a new basic shape to recreate precious and refined textures

Wear it: the Maltese cross, also the symbol of the Republic of Amalfi, is the easiest option to create patterns with a Medieval mood thanks to its balanced shape, since all arms are of equal length. Aquilano.Rimondi use it for the jewel-like 3D texture on a simple black mid-length skirt, while Versace use the cross to embellish a black velvet total look, on a coat with buckles at the cuffs and an ample top-handles handbag.

A statement decorative element for Fausto Puglisi who applies golden crosses on the back and sleeves of a leather jacket with a rock and roll vibe.

On jewelry, flaunted recently also by celebrities, including Madonna and Naomi Campbell: gold earrings with stones and stud detail for Lanvin, glass-cut cross with pearls and geometric metallic elements for Moutoncollet.

A subtly ironic outfit for Devastee that choose a black dress with cross-shaped and smiley cut-outs and a Pierrot-style white ruffled collar.
